Your "dumb little projects" are so important during this harrowing time. Don't forget that. Your creativity has value, for yourself and for the world.

🍂 It's officially Autumn! 🍂
Quote repost with your Autumn themed #art

Here are two old posters and a visdev piece!

Digital illustration of a young Filipino girl and a brown cub in the woods, watching the red leaves fall above them.

A digital illustration of a young Filipino girl walking in the woods, passing through mounds of orange and red trees as she heads toward the horizon.

Three rough color thumbnails show a creek. They’re in different times: day (top), dusk/dawn (middle), and night (bottom).

The top one has a turquoise-yellow gradient sky, the middle one has an indigo-red gradient sky, and the bottom one has a dark blue-light blue gradient sky.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but create a story so it exists, not for fame. Social media forces us to be performative and constantly worry about the algorithm. Just make it cause you love it. it will resonate with the right people who will cherish it, not “consume” it. —

I mean this in the most earnest way possible. If your points of reference for storytelling all come from cartoons I BEG you to read more books. There’s so much more variety out there, so much that hasn’t been distilled through 80 different hands & a single corporation’s S+P department.
